This Actor Gets Into Vinod Khanna’s Shoes in Salman’s ‘Dabangg 3’
Directed by Prabhudeva, Dabangg 3 also stars Sonakshi Sinha.
After being praised for his performance in Bharat, Salman Khan is gearing up for his upcoming film, Dabangg 3. While Sonakshi Sinha will play the leading lady in the film, Salman has now taken to Twitter to announce his on-screen dad. In the previous two installments, the late Vinod Khanna played Salman’s father.
Salman shared a video, which begins with his and Vinod Khanna's photo frame and later the camera is panned at his brother Pramod Khanna, who introduces himself as Prajapati Pandey. The video also shows Sonakshi Sinha and Prabhudeva cheering Pramod Khanna.
On Tuesday, Salman Khan shared a video of himself along with father Salim Khan and singer Kamaal Khan having a cozy moment together and crooning along to a song.
In the clip that Salman posted on Instagram, veteran screenwriter Salim is seen elegantly singing a few lines from the golden classic 'Suhaani Raat Dhal Chuki' while Salman and Kamaal sit by his side and try to catch up. Salman captioned the video, “The Sultan, Tiger, Bharat of our family . . Singing.” Now that’s a good son!
'Suhaani Raat Dhal Chuki' was originally from the 1949 film Dulari. The song was sung by Mohammad Rafi and has lyrics written by Shakeel Badayuni with music by Naushad. Dulari starred Shyam Kumar , Madhubala and Geeta Bali among others.
Salman has recently gotten much more active on Instagram. He often posts photos and videos of him working out. Videos of the actor pulling off a lot of stunts like splits, backflips and doing weights with his bodyguards have gone viral. He has also been sharing more personal videos with his extended family including pranks with his nephews.
